Main topic

  • Multilevel parliaments. About this topic contributions related to themes such as regulation, operation, composition, representation versus governability and parliamentary transparency could be submitted.

Other topics

  • Sources for the parliamentary history.
  • The representative assemblies of the Crown of Aragon.
  • Political representation forms from the Middle Ages to the present.


The political institutional reality of most of the world shows us, within the scope of parliaments, a multilevel structure. Along with the parliaments of states we find sub-state legislative chambers in decentralized states and in recent decades new legislative institutions as the European Parliament or representative assemblies of supranational entities such as the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe.

In addition to this central issue, in our Congress we want to reflect on the forms of political representation, with special attention to parliamentary representation throughout history.

And as a base of both studies we find it appropriate to introduce a third issue referred to the sources for the parliamentary history in which we would like to count on the proposals of historians, jurists, political scientists, documentalists and archivists to provide us with their thoughts on the kind of sources, their classification, information management and the possible applications for parliamentary studies.

Finally, given that the Conference is going to be celebrated in Mallorca it is adequate to provide a space to the comparative reflection of the scholars of the representative assemblies of the Crown of Aragon.
